Default Model 48 22Mag Revolver

Does anyone have one of these 22mag Model 48? Just wondering if any problems with the gun and does it shoot pretty accurate? Thanks!
Product: Model 48

I've been considering getting one of the new classic 48's for a while. I think I'd rather have a 6", however, because 22 WMR works better from a longer barrel.

Was looking at this one to. I'm mainly wanting it for the wife to shoot as I cant get her to shoot a big gun with some recoil. For home defense maybe carry in the car and might even carry myself in the woods or conceal carry.

The new short barrel 22 WMR rounds being introduced may make these little revolver better SD guns (and small game hunting too).

A LGS had a 48-4 for $799.00 that I went to examine again yesterday but it was gone. They still had the box with the papers and tools.......................unbelievable! I said to the people working there, you didn't include the box with the gun? The guy said that happens sometimes! All I could say was WOW! Also, in the same shop, looked at a nice 34/44 and when I handed it back to the kid behind the counter he opened it up, checked it and violently swung the cylinder shut! Another WOW from me! They want 1599.00 for the 38/44 BTW, 4 inch in good condition.

I also have the 4" Model 48 Classic and am very happy with it and its accuracy too.

I have a 48. They're nice guns. Any age, any barrel length, any condition. They're all good. Go get one.

I been pondering a snubnose in 22 WMR for the misses when she walks the dog for feral or rabbid animals. I been wanting a 6" barreled one for handgun hunting. My point is if you see it you better grab it these don't last long at any dealers.
